    So, if you're stealing electricity, and the cops can easily trace the wiring to your RV, then why aren't you arrested? Or is it easier to just let PG&E raise rates on people to cover the losses from these thefts? And if you disable a traffic light and a crash occurs, why aren't you arrested? If Al Queda or ISIS hacked into government computers and disabled a traffic light to cause injuries or death to people, wouldn't they get arrested? Should the tourists who are flying into the newly-renamed airport be told to avoid that intersection?

    This is what happens when you vote for people who live in the Oakland/Berkeley Hills, NOT Oakland . These homeless enchantments aside from being a fire hazards and human trafficking areas, are literally making Oakland to go into a recession. Causing more people to become homeless . In Comparison look at Alameda how dealt with the problem. They’re going to build more housing than any city in the area (On an island btw) and they’re breaking up camps to stop Crime. Stop voting for people who don’t actually live in the city. they only care about pretending to look liberal, Not actually solving problems.

You're just the typical brainwashed right winger thinking they have a clue when they don't. If capitalism wasn't destroying the country and making people unreasonably poor, they wouldn't be stealing copper wire. Dare you to try some independent media and stop suckling mainstream bs.

    Aluminum is about 1/5 the current price of copper so this might help. But copper is generally preferred due to it's expansion / contraction properties. Aluminum expansion / contraction loosens electrical connections over time leading to electrical fires. There is a reason we don't use aluminum wiring in our homes.

  • @davidinwashington

    I should also add, Airbus likely chooses aluminum over copper, a> because aluminum is lighter weight which saves airlines fuel costs down the road and b> most of the aircraft is built from aluminum so Airbus has a ready supply of it and the tooling to work with it and c> aircraft are highly maintained so the mechanics likely re-righten electrical connections as part of their normal maintenance routine (reducing the risk of fire.)
